or by E-Mail |
The purpose of the List is to allow Barter Hours members to offer and make trades in real time, simply by sending one e-mail to the List (which will then distribute your e-mail to every Barter Hours member who has signed up for the list).
If you're a Barter Hours member, you should already have gotten an e-mail inviting you to join the List. If you haven't gotten an e-mail invitation, or if you're signed up but having problems, please let me (Jack) know by e-mailing me here, and I'll resend your invitation (some of our e-mail addresses are old).
We hope to 'see' you on the List soon! (If you're already signed up, you can post an e-mail to the list here).

Here's a short, interesting and useful article called 'Adopt a Legislator' (PDF) that gives excellent tips on how to form a more personal relationship with your legislator(s) that will allow you to have greater input into state and local affairs. A fun article courtesy of Bernalillo County's chapter of Local Collaborative, Inc.
Local Food Matters is also preparing a brochure listing all local food producers and growers (including veggies, fruits, eggs, dairy, poultry and meat). What a great resource this will be! If you know a grower who is not yet connected with Local Food Matters and would like to be included in the brochure, please contact Elizabeth Ratzlaff at 454-9242 or Julie Olague at 421-8936. We'll all benefit from pitching in on this one.
Barter Hours member Bob Wallace has started an electronic discussion list, the Las Vegas Issues Forum. The purpose of the list is "to provide a safe, open, online space for the discussion of issues that matter in Las Vegas and surrounding communities..."
If you're interested in joining the discussion group (we need your voice!), you can sign up for Las Vegas Issues Forum here.
Barter Hours Newsletters and Updates are available free online here or in paper form by request. If you need help getting a paper copy, e-mail Cordia or call her at 426-1468.
Better yet, tell us your e-mail address (we won't share it) and we'll e-mail the newsletter right to your inbox each issue, saving paper, postage and transportation costs.
